I own a ridiculously unnecessary amount of yoga pants (especially considering that I don't actually do yoga). I think I've bought about 4-5 different brands from Amazon, along with some from zappos/6pm, sports authority, kohls, and old navy. So you could say I really like yoga pants.Of the ones I've bought on amazon I've ended up returning all of them except one, which are easily my absolute favorite pants yet: Alki'i Women's Cotton Lycra Fold over Yoga Pant. I bought them in every available color for my size.
The only reason I even bought another pair of yoga pants was the color I was sick of wearing black pants (with a flash of color) so I grabbed these in the charcoal/purple option.
Ultimately these Doublju pants will be joining my collection of keepers...while they aren't nearly as thick as the Alki'i pants and the fold over band is a good bit smaller and not as strong of a material they are still pretty nice pants (if you ignore the fact that I paid a bit more for these than my absolute favorites).
The one thing though these are INSANELY long like ridiculously long. I'm 5'7" these are easily 3-4" too long for me and I like my pants long (if it just barely touches the floor that's too short for me..I like to have about 1/2"-1" flapping over my heel...dunno why but I do). These are so long it's laughable...if you're incredibly tall (like 5'10" & up) you'll love these pants...if you're shorter than 5'6" I wouldn't bother unless you can sew pretty well or don't mind getting them hemmed.
I got a size Medium I'm about 150lbs (like I said 5'7"). While the sz large probably would be a better fit in terms of tightness around the thighs I don't feel like I'm busting out of these, and I can't imagine going up in size will do any sort of good for the length....so I'm sticking with a size medium.
